Does anyone have ideas on how to handle push notifications for encrypted or access-controlled notes? The problem is that it seems to me the push notification server is going to need access to the user's signer in order to sign relay AUTH messages and decrypt DMs (if they want to show DM content in the notification).
On my email notifications server (https://github.com/coracle-social/anchor), I'm allowing the user to optionally send along a NIP 46 session so that I can sign AUTH messages, but for obvious reasons this makes me nervous.
I am aware of 0xchat's spec for push notifications (https://github.com/0xchat-app/0xchat-core/blob/main/doc/nofitications.md), but it seems like closed groups and NIP 17 group chat support is limited.
Vitor Pamplona (nprofile…pt5w) w (nprofile…5e7v) is this something you guys have solved?
